has anyone put this on a scar 17s? I hear it abuses eotechs wasn't sure if this sight can handle the recoil.

The scar if anything would only effect the models with the double a baterries if this highly believed myth was true. Through personal experience working with these 308 rifles you'd be better off with an acog or variable.

I have a 17s but haven't used the eotech with it. I would think that it would be fine though. Eotechs are top notch. I would just go to their website and get in contact with someone that knows for sure. I recommend something like a Leupold 1 to 6 or a 3 to 9 power scope for the 17s though, if you can afford the SCAR you can afford to put some quality optics on it. Not saying that the eotech is not quality but you want a longer range scope on a longer range gun. You can smack a target easy at 800 yards with the 17s all day, why decrease the max distance? You could always run a smaller 45 degree red dot like a trijicon rmr for your short distance shooting. I have a 17s but haven't used the eotech with it. I would think that it would be fine though.

I have it mounted on a hi point carbine, so far it has held zero. I run about 300 rounds through it. Some people have had a very good experience with this sight, and other have not. I have not had a good experience with this sight. The first sight I bought had to be return because of the small amount of recoil on my hi point caused a short in the circuits, which caused the sight to flicker on and off. Its my belief that this sight would not last from consistent recoil of a 12 gauge of any length barrel. I could be wrong, but you are taking a chance.

Mounted mine on MP 15/ 22 does a good . Don't think I would put on AR if shooting at critters out past 150 yards. Hope this helps other then that I really like the scope.

I have this scope and its really nice, its more like a rubber textured film it very scuff and scratch resistant. Have mine on a savage .270 handles recoil just fine. Nice optic for the price.

I tried using the receiver cover with the rails for a scope but I'm not to happy with how it mounts an how high the scope sits on on the gun.... So I got this iron sight because I don't want a scope on my sks... Long story short Idk cuz I only use the iron sight... Haha

I have the SCAR 17s (7.62) and LOVE this scope. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for... And if you're going to drop that much money on a nice gun, why not get a nice scope to go with it? Also, looks amazing on my flat dark earth IMO. No complaints.

I regularly see the SPARC mounted on AKs. Personally, I miunted mine on a 5.45, but it's a very well made optic and others have not reported failures on 7.62 platform.

It fits on a standard picatiny rail and I've had no issues with it handling recoil. If you're hoping for precision out of any laser you're sadly mistaken. After significant volume of fire the brightness of the flashlight decreases due to exhaust smoke.

I run one on a flat top ar15 on a 45 degree angle as a backup sight. I don't know anything about a SCAR, but I know that it holds zero on my ar well after 400 rounds down range. I had to look around to find a mount that would angle to drop the sight on the bore axis. I got my 45 mount from Amazon.

To answer honest, I have it on a Ruger SR-22 Pistol and it works great. (No recoil)Where the red dot is, the bullet hits.But I only shoot at very close ranges. ( 15 feet to 25 feet).I don't know how it will hold up on an AR or how far the laser can be sited in accurately.Sorry for such a vague answer.

I had it on a 7.62x39 so from my experience yes. I sold the gun it was on so don't know how long it's gonna hold up. I found it to be decent as a cheap optic when your in the bush. And it looks really nice.

Anyone use this on the SACR 17 in .308?Looks like an amazing defense, hog hunting and paper punching scope.

I purchased this bipod for my .308 Remington 770 and have had no issues from recoil. The only suggestion I would have it not to tighten the bipod too much because it is easy to strip the bolt. A friend of mine purchased the same one and it stripped on his first install.

Recoil shouldn't be an issue, I swapped it on a 30-06 and it worked fine...I might be concerned about the eye relief if it were mounted too close to the stock on the shotgun though.

I have one on a POF 308 and it works fine, dead on target.Have you checked you weapon to see if it's true with just the stock sights. If so then a higher rail may do the trick

I had it on ar-15 and it worked fine, no issues, hard to say on a 12 gauge, but I bet itll hold up, for 304 its worth it, reticle as good as any

I mounted that exact set-up and had good results. It depends a bit on the iron sights, but if you're using the stock sights then it should be no problem.
